Tapout: Maybe b'cos once married, igbo women remain faithful 2 d end What of those that marry 'oyinbo' the white ie. the westerners... and the ones that married from within and are divorced now... It is not only the Igbo, it is our African mentality. Don't be surprised that within same Igbo, Anambra will still complain about Imo, Ebonyi will still complain about Abia, etc Do you know there are some people called Osu among the Igbos? It is a sign of naivety and crudeness in Africa, it is not because their women are better but because they feel insecure with other tribes or states. 2 Likes |

lorretta u: It is a general belief that igbo women don't mess around while marriedMessing around while married doesn't have anything to do with one's tribe or ethnicity ,but self discipline and a lot of factors that cannot be generalized as a common trait belonging to a particular people. So, my beautiful friend if you don't have anything reasonable to offer on this topic, just shut it 1 Like |

Why do people pick a pan-Nigerian problem and make it seem like a specifically Igbo problem? People instinctively want their children to marry from within their culture group. |
Re: Why Do Igbo People Detest Marrying Other Tribes? by Nobody: 2:36pm On Nov 28, 2013 |
I'm igbo but I must confess that's something I really hate about our culture. Every other aspect is good IMO but that osu thingy. Eww I used to tell my folks if I want to marry and the guy is osu,it won't stop me. Trust them na they gave me the mouth-trashing of my life. I wish there's something I can do about it It's not fair.

They do get married to other tribes. Especially the ones that are not really staying east. I have enough examples of Igbos married to other tribes around me. There is even dearth of guys - responsible guys though - in the country, that one chic will be doing yanga. |

Igbo men spend lavishly on their women and assume ownership of the women after marriage. They also give abundantly to their in-laws, train and sponsor their wives siblings and many more. Now tell me, which igbo man would want to give his daughter to an outcast when a fellow igbo man would do all of the above listed? Furthermore, an igbo man would feel more secure with an igbo woman when it comes to his business dealings ( yall know dem business are always shady). Yoruba girls are not that secretive and would jeopardize everything. Igbo women are beautiful and fair in complexion compare to their fellow tribal counterparts,; these bunch are money grablers and knows nothing about love. They would marry any igbo man as long as the money is there. Igbo parents are the main causation of this out-of-date practice. ..they loveeeee moneyyyyy!!! And igbo guys are ready to spend even if it involves killing for it. By and large, it is a cultural thing, and traditionally, igbo men loves their igbo women! 4 Likes |

It's not just Igbo... Even Yorubas' I think it's the negative orientation that has been fed into the boys since they were young about other tribes that makes them reluctant to marry from another tribe. I wouldn't forget the day my Dad told me that over his dead body will I marry from the east after hearing I was dating an Igbo. Same with the Mum of my gf calling me to tell me I should never speak to her daughter again cuz I be yoruba smh |
